With such a big fighter, Lu Bu's generals, Cao Xing, Gao Shun, and Hao Meng, were all looking forward to Lu Bu waving the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand fiercely, so that he could give the order as soon as possible, wave his troops to advance, and kill the black mountain thief, but unfortunately, Lu Bu in front of the battle just stood so quietly, and Fang Tian's painting halberd was also raised, but he didn't have the slightest intention of leading the crowd to cover up.

It wasn't until the Black Mountain thieves completely retreated into the camp and the gate was closed with a bang that he flicked his horse's head, faced the soldiers under his command, and raised the Fang Tian Painting Halberd in his hand.

"Mighty!"

"Invincible!"

As Lu Bu lifted and put down Fang Tian's painting halberd, and the sharp soldiers raised their blades in their hands at the same time, they shouted in unison, and the momentum was monstrous!

Although they were full of puzzlement, Hao Meng and the others still waited for the troops to return to the camp and return to the big tent of the Chinese army before asking Lu Bu this question.

Lu Bu smiled, looked at the people in the Chinese army's tent one by one, and said coolly: "It's just five thousand black mountain thieves, even if you kill them all, what's the benefit?" What I want is the whole Black Mountain thief! ”

Speaking of zuihou, Lu Bu opened his hands wide, and then hugged him into his arms, as if his hands were pulling, not air.

Seeing this gesture, Hao Meng, Gao Shun, Cao Xing, and Wei Xu all understood that what Lu Bu wanted was not to defeat the Black Mountain Thieves or kill all the Black Mountain Thieves, but to bring the Black Mountain Thieves under his account.

Lu Bu's decision, in addition to Jia Xu, Hao Meng and others heard it for the first time, and they were all stunned and surprised.

The Guy army was ordered to come to quell the rebellion, defeat the Black Mountain thieves, capture the head of the thief, and pass the head of Luoyang, so that it can be regarded as having done all the work, and it is not impossible to drive the Black Mountain thief back to the Lugu Mountain, but if you want to incorporate it, this difficulty is suddenly much greater.

It's just that since Lu Bu has made up his mind like this, even if Hao Meng has doubts, when he sees that Gao Shun and Cao Xing's faces have returned to calm, he immediately just smashed his mouth and didn't ask.

Wei Xu, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng immediately praised loudly, one after another, and slapped Lu Bu indiscriminately, seeing that Hao Meng glared at the three of them with some dissatisfaction, not to mention Gao Shun and Cao Xing, there was obvious disdain in their eyes.

"Hahaha"

Although Lu Bu knows that the kung fu on the mouths of Wei Xu, Song Xian and Hou Cheng is more profound than the kung fu on the hands and feet, no one likes to listen to good words, especially Lu Bu is now accustomed to his current identity and status, and has the rich experience brought by later generations, and his mind is broader and broader than that of the "Lu Bu" in the world, and he can not only reuse talents like Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, but also tolerate and make the best use of "fart" talents like Wei Xu, for this little compliment, Although I am indeed very comfortable in my heart, I will not lose my judgment because of this.

Looking up, Lu Bu pointed at everyone: "Of course, this is not something that can be eaten in a while, these days, you will reorganize the soldiers and horses, and in a few days, you will be able to return to Luoyang victoriously." ”

He said this with such confidence, but everyone took it for granted and agreed with a bang.

In the next few days, Lu Buke was not idle at all, and every day he took 3,000 soldiers and horses to the Black Mountain Bandit Camp to swagger and fight, but no matter how they scolded, humiliated, and lured the enemy, the Black Mountain Bandit Camp was closed and there was no response.

It's no wonder that Zhang Yanming knew that going to war was to send military merit and morale to Lu Bu, but of course he wouldn't fight.

After such a stalemate for five days, the Hedong battle report that Lu Bu had been waiting for finally came through Luoyang.

However, what he was waiting for was not the news of the defeat of the White Wave Thieves, but the news that Yulin Zhonglang defeated the Niu Auxiliary Army and returned to Wenxi County to wait for help.

The battle report was unknown, and along with the battle report, there was also a military order from the lieutenant Dong Zhuo, ordering Lü Bu to send an army through Wangwu Mountain and gallop to the aid of Niu Fu.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, the lights and candles were bright, and Lu Bu and his people gathered around the spread out map to discuss the military situation.

Jia Xu held a long bamboo pole in his hand, tapped it on the map, and said: "Wenxi County is here, located on the bank of the Shushui River, there is no danger to defend, less than 100 miles to the south, that is, Hedong County is the security of Hedong County, surrounded by a horse and a flat river, and there is also no danger to defend." ”

From Jia Xu's words, everyone could hear that Niu Fu was defeated this time, but he was afraid that it was a little miserable, and his face was solemn.

“haha！”

Lu Bu's expression was relaxed, he snorted, his fingers were dotted, and he laughed in a low voice: "Without Brother Wenyou (PS: Li Ruzi Wenyou) to give advice, Niu Zhonglang is a little reckless, and he is defeated and retreated, then he must be after capturing the two counties of Jiangyi and Linfen, he intends to level the Baibo Valley in one fell swoop, and retreat in a panic after the defeat, and even the pass here cannot be defended." ”

After saying that, his fingers dotted on the south side of the two cities of Jiangyi and Linfen, which is located in the recess of the Purple Mountain between Hushui and Shushui, and it is also the only way for Hedong to go to Taiyuan.

"In that case, rushing from Hanoi is beyond the reach of the whip."

Gao Shun's worries were actually the worries of everyone present, and they all looked at Jia Xu and waited for his explanation.

"Of course!"

Jia Xu nodded slightly, and the bamboo pole in his hand was pointed on Anyi, "Taiwei has been running Hedong for many years, of course Anyi cannot afford to lose, and the generals Li Dao and Guo Yan who stayed behind are famous fierce generals under Dong Gong's account; In addition, there are also Linjin guards Zhang Ji Zhang Xiu's uncle and nephew, Huayin guards Duan Xuan, Hongnong guards Hu Zhen and Yang Ding, Mianchi guards Fan Chou, Xin'an guards Xu Rong, Li Meng, Wang Fang, are not general, even if the white wave thieves can go down to Anyi, all according to Hedong, in fact, there is no threat to Luoyang. ”

"In this way, it is the Montenegrin thieves who are wantonly plundering Hanoi, and the threat to Luoyang is greater? However, with Huaxiong guarding the Tiger Prison, no matter how many times the Black Mountain thieves are, it is difficult to cross the west. ”

Lu Bu's fingers crossed an arc along the place where Jia Xu had pointed, which was the way from Hedong County to Luoyang, and it was necessary to detour to Linjin, cross the river from Fengling, and then go down to Luoyang along the east of the river.

"Hmm!"

Jia Xu's bamboo pole pointed to the Tiger Prison Pass a hundred miles east of Luoyang, and nodded heavily, "So after Dong Gong stabilized the court, he immediately urgently dispatched his general Huaxiong to rush here to defend it." The tiger prison is not lost, even if the Kanto region is eroded, Luoyang can still rest easy. ”

With such an arrangement, even Wei Xu and the three of them all understood that Dong Zhuo, the captain, had already completed the control of Luoyang militarily, according to the tiger prison in the east, guarding the eastern part of the country, and deploying heavy troops along the traffic arteries in the west to ensure that the back road was not lost, and the end of the ground could be advanced and retreated, and nothing went wrong.

Lu Bu's face did not change, but in his heart, he was awe-inspiring, and he knew that he still despised Dong Zhuo a little.

Since the crossing, he has relied on his huge prophetic advantage to resolve the crisis of killing his father, successfully controlled the state army, and won Dong Zhuo's trust. This series of successes made him involuntarily arrogant in his heart, thinking that Dong Zhuo was nothing more than that, but looking at it today, he found that while he was successful, Dong Zhuoke was not idle, and had completed the full control of Luoyang from the inside out.

Now he and the Bingzhou army, if they are not careful, they will be trapped and die in Luoyang, and there is no way out, not to mention, in Luoyang, there are also Xiliang Iron Cavalry who are brave and not inferior to the Bingzhou army.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, everyone fell into contemplation, and it took a long time for Lu Bu to break it.

"Since the captain has an order, our army no longer needs to be polite to the Black Mountain thieves, and the messenger will be ordered to set off, and the army will rest for a day tomorrow, and the thieves will be destroyed the day after tomorrow!"

Everyone agreed with a bang, and as soon as they made preparations, they were already ready, waiting for the battle situation in Hedong, and then playing a time difference in the transmission of military information to deceive the Black Mountain thieves.

Early the next morning, in order to hide people's eyes, Lu Bu still took his men and horses to the Black Mountain thief camp as usual to fight.

At the end of the day, there was movement in the camp of the Black Mountain thieves, which had not moved, and there was a movement coming, first at a certain point in the camp, and then quickly spread to the entire camp, and occasionally the torches were dotted and shook everywhere.

Zhang Yan, the head of the Black Mountain thief, received a report from the messenger, it should have been at the time of the day, he waited until this time to lead the army to evacuate, the timing of the choice was very good, it was the most difficult time for people, but unfortunately all this was Jia Xu's calculation, even at this hour, Jia Xu was expected to score exactly the same.

After waiting for a full quarter of an hour, Lu Bu turned over and got on his horse, pointed forward with the Fang Tian Painting Halberd in his hand, and ordered in a loud voice: "Attack!" ”
